And we are in sync completely with the idea of niche market - mountain vibes and maintaining a local attitude while rebuilding properties that have significant deferred maintenance. 

My attitude and posture have evolved. 

Once you try and change that, the attitudes will change. 

We both have the "want to" and "go get it attitude" of Investing for ourselves and helping our family!!!

How would you combat this type of attitude?

In addition to the notice that is on the back of the application regarding "renting as is, no additional cleaning or repairs without written approval of PM" and other caveats, I also explain the actual process, basic factors for approval, the documentation they need to provide, cost and payment method for application and for move in should they be approved.If they have not followed all of the instructions, people with poor attitude and that are non-compliant are not a protected class  under fair housing, and they may be disqualified.

Your knowledge will not change anything, but your attitude will.

It takes work (commitment, time, knowledge and energy) and the right attitude and aptitude to be a successful as a landlord and successful in this business. :-)

Aaaaahhhh so let me see, dump my money into a crypto that changes value more than my teenage daughters attitudes, than hand that to a company who is going to loan that out to other people who than use it to buy MORE bi-polar crypto, and IF they pay back on the loan I can make up to, UP TO 8%APY...... or if they don't, loose everything, or most everything, or get paid but now the crypto is worth half...... 

Keep the positive attitude!
